Topographic Carpets - The Map Rug by Harry Allen is the Modern Equivalent to Oriental
The Map Rug by Harry Allen is the Modern Equivalent to Oriental

The Map rug by Harry Allen is an exercise is logical decoration. It is a play on scale and brings a unique topographic quality that is both recognizable and seemingly random. Allen was inspired by his grandmother’s Oriental carpets, reminiscing of a bygone time: “When my brother and I were kids, we’d play with toys on the rug like it was a big map. Blue became the sea and red was land.”

The Map rug by Harry Allen is made of tufted New Zealand wool and is available for custom order in a size of your choosing.

So cute! I used to pretend like that too, even with the floor tiles at the supermarket!
